I should have mentioned that my page where I noticed the behaviour that I
reported and queried was using the same strict doctype as you have used.

You might be doing something else to trigger quirks mode in IE.

Type this into the address bar in IE while viewing your page and it will
tell you:
javascript:alert(document.compatMode)
Thanks Nik. Didn't know about this test.
Your idea was a good one, but test confirms standard/strict mode with a
"CSS1" indication.
I will revisit the original scenario.
